Neue Regierung Minden, Administrative heritage building in Minden, Germany.

The Neue Regierung is a Neorenaissance building in the Weserrenaissance style, erected 1902–1906 by government architects Paul Kanold and Paul Kieschke on the abandoned fortifications at the Wesertor. Its main front was rebuilt in simplified form after World War II; the second large gable above it was not reconstructed.

The Neue Regierung was built between 1902 and 1906 on the abandoned fortifications at the Wesertor by government architects Paul Kanold and Paul Kieschke in the Neo-Renaissance style of the Weser Renaissance. It replaced the Großer Domhof as seat of the Minden district government, which had existed since 1816. In 1947 the authority moved to Detmold under the Lippische Punktationen, and the war-damaged building was rebuilt, its second large gable over the main front not restored.

The building shows how government officials and citizens interacted in the 19th century and what spaces were designed for their meetings. The classical facade with its symmetrical lines reflects the period's understanding of order and administrative authority.

The building stands in the Weserglacis area by the Wesertor, east of the old town centre. It is no longer an active government office: the city's offices moved back to the town hall in July 2022, and conversion into a senior residence began in spring 2023. The car park east of the building is confusingly signposted "Alte Regierung".

The car park east of the building is officially named "Alte Regierung", although it actually lies at the Neue Regierung. The mix-up stems from the fact that the Minden branch of the Detmold district government sits at Büntestraße 1, so many locals now call the 1902–1906 building the "Alte Regierung" instead.
